Operation of the Site's river water distribution system (R-Normal line) is required to provide water to support the 200 Area replacement biomass cogeneration facility. Returning the R-Normal line to normal service will require routine purging of stagnant water exhibiting high pH as a result of low or no flow conditions in the line. Savannah River Site plans to drain a portion of the R-Normal river water line in a strategic manner to remove/purge the high pH water from the line without contravening water quality requirements.
